-Left him to pursue her "dream"
-Keeps her ex boyfriend around because she can't tell him there's no chance
-Ran her insane credit debt so high that he had to take a job he would hate to cover it
-Bitched at him for actually beginning to like his job and was upset at him for becoming a different person
-Was upset when he actually quit said job, which she apparently wanted at some point
-Ruined most of Ted's relationships
-Left the group because of a joke that Barney made

The hatred for Ted is unjustified. While Barney and Marshall are clearly a cut above him, he's become a fun character over the years. He's the douche of a friend we all have who acts overly intellectual and has odd interests. Sure, he's a little whiny about his love life, and has awful girlfriends, but that's the premise of the show. For my money, a completely single Ted is almost as good a character as Barney and Marshall. Sadly, the direction of the show can't allow for a happily single Ted for long stretches of time.

Robin is awesome at times, but also infuriatingly boring and irrelevant at others. At her best, she's in the Barney-Marshall area as well. She just gets bogged down with incredibly boring stretches throughout the series, and doesn't quite have the impact Barney and Marshall can have when the episode doesn't really involve her. NPH and Segel are just a little better for subtle mannerisms that add to the humor in a scene that they aren't the focus of.

**** Lily. She's a rusty little **** who could die off and I wouldn't care. When she's not being adorable in some way, she's useless.

I can keep going...

Lily has been terrible to Marshall...but none of us are actually Marshall. Lily is just great TV. And now that I think of it, stripper Lily needs to be on the list.

At no point in this entire series has Ted done anything, even close to as amazing as Lily's inconspicuous dancing by the jukebox. Ergo Lily has contributed more to the greatness of the show than Ted. Lawyered.

Ted's over the top douchebag act was perfect in the Robots vs Wrestlers episode, and he hasn't overtly destroyed Marshall's pride and/or wallet dozens of times.

There's two reasons to watch HIMYM. One is to laugh at NPH, the other is to stare at Cobie Smulders, who is ridiculously attractive. I love Jason Segal, but Marshall and Lily have become caricatures of their early show selves...Having her Dad around is actually pathetic. The show is damn near unwatchable at the moment, but in its better days...

The show is pretty horrible now but I still watch. Cobie Smulders who was also really hot looks like a coked out lesbo ***** lately on the show though. She got way to skinny and I don't know what happened to her.

This guy knows whats up. I don't find her attractive in the slightest at the moment to be honest.
